convertToCSV

public static java.lang.String convertToCSV(Table table,
                                            char delim,
                                            java.lang.String linebreak)
                                     throws java.io.IOException

Returns a CSV-formatted String based on the contents of the given Table, using the specified character as a cell delimiter and the specified String as a linebreak sequence.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs generating the CSV conversion

convertTablesToCSV

public static java.lang.String[] convertTablesToCSV(Page p,
                                                    char delim,
                                                    java.lang.String linebreak)
                                             throws java.io.IOException

Returns an array of CSV-formatted Strings, one for each Table found in the given page, using the specified character as a cell delimiter and the specified String as a linebreak sequence. This is simply a shortcut to applying convertToCSV(Table, char, String) to each Table in the given Page manually.
